Liked these things at my Safeway until they installed some machine learning computer vision software to prevent stealing
Not that I was stealing anything, of course, I would never do anything illegal. It's just the principle of it.
That shit fails all the time for false positives. Thankfully you can skip past it.
I frequently buy multiples of a single item so I do what a cashier does - I take a single version and just swipe it the number of times of things I'm buying, then swipe the whole lot in my bag. It always comes up with the video saying something like it appears there was some error in checkout (I'm assuming the video is to try to guilt shoplifters, saying hey look we have video). Anyways you can skip and ignore it. I've never had any repercussions to my account - granted if someone were to actually watch the video and cross it to receipt it would be obvious what I'm doing, but if they were to tie some sort of repercussion like banning my account I assume that would be automated (and fail just the same) too.
Funniest shit is it doesn't even call an associate over. I need an associate to badge in for my 50% coupon you stuck on the milk, but you think you saw me swipe some shit? Nah, not gonna raise any flags.
